An ambush caused Wu Sangui's troops to fall like a mountain, and 30,000 soldiers and horses were defeated. They were forced to retreat to the state of Xinyang, but by the time they arrived in Xinyang, the city had already changed hands. It turned out that the wolf howling brigade sent 5,000 soldiers and horses disguised as the Chu army, and came from Huguang, saying that it was an additional reinforcement.

The general defending the city did not doubt him, after all, this army of soldiers and horses came from the direction of Huguang, and he did not believe that the Pingbei army could withstand the attack of the 30,000 army led by Wu Sangui. So he put it into the city.

The final outcome can be imagined, naturally the 5,000 men and horses suddenly attacked the defenders in the city, killed them, and captured the prisoners. Didn't run away with one anyway. More than 10,000 of the 20,000 horses were captured, and thousands of themselves were killed or wounded.

When Wu Sangui came back with less than 20,000 remnants of soldiers, he shouted at the city gate, but in exchange for bows, arrows, guns, and cannons, he immediately stomped his feet on the embarrassed Wu Sangui, and when he saw a yellow dragon flag on a black background fluttering on the city tower, Wu Sangui's heart squeaked, and his whole body was cold.

This black-background Yellow Dragon Banner Wu Sangui is familiar and can't be more familiar, he often deals with that Liu Xia, how can he not know the banner of the Pingbei Army? When he saw the flag, he understood that this Xinyang Prefecture had already changed hands. Wu Sangui was so angry that he couldn't help but spew blood mist from his mouth, which made the guards around him tremble.

Wu Sangui can't have anything! Never!

In a moment, Wu Sangui finally calmed down, but the anger in his heart was not calmed at all. Wu Sangui had no choice but to retreat to the mountain, waiting for the opportunity to attack Liu Xia again in the future, this Xinyang is an important area, and now it has been lost so carelessly. After that, if you want to snatch it back, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Not to mention that Wu Sangui's army defeated Xinyang and defeated Yingshan. Let's say that when Naduoduo was on the road, he heard that the grain and grass in the rear were burned, and although he was angry, he also understood that now it was just a small matter, and it could not be compared with the big thing that saved Beijing. So he hastened his horse and whipped up and rushed to Beijing.

Along the way, Duoduo was anxious, the city of Beijing was high and strong, and it was not easy to be breached, but if the city was besieged for a long time, the people inside would definitely make trouble if they had nothing to eat, and at that time I was afraid that the city would not be breached.

Drive! Drive!

On the wide official road, a puff of dust flew up.

As soon as Hoyande learned of Duoduo's reinforcements, he gathered his forces and waited for Duoduo to come, and the two armies fought to the death, and the winner naturally got everything. The loser has nothing!

"Huo Yan Degang, you are just a clown on the grassland, you dare to besiege my capital of the Qing Dynasty, you are really impatient. This king has fulfilled you today! It just so happens that I am worried that I don't have a chance to kill you on weekdays, but today is really a good opportunity. ”

Duoduo immediately kept thinking about the appearance of Huo Yan Degang, in fact, Duo Duo had never seen what Huo Yan Degang looked like, everything was just his own thoughts.

"Huo Yande must be destroyed, so that not only will the reputation of this king come back, but also the trust of the people and nobles in the city, after all, he saved them!"

The more Duoduo thought about it, the more he felt that Huo Yande had just come at the right time, and that he had come too right, once he killed Huo Yande Gang this time, all the reputation he had lost before would be returned, and he would be able to make great contributions.

"Report! Lord, we are still twenty miles away from the capital, according to the scout's report, not far from the city of the capital, I saw a large number of soldiers and horses gathered, and it is suspected that Huo Yande has just learned that we have come back to help, and gathered the soldiers and horses to fight to the death with us! ”

After hearing this, a sneer flashed on the corner of his mouth, and he shouted: "Brothers, are you afraid!" ”

The 30,000 soldiers and horses brought by Duoduo were all cavalry, and they drained the elite of the Eight Banners of the giant deer.

"Don't be afraid! Unafraid! Kill!"

"I know that my brothers have not eaten for a few meals, and that they are tired and hungry, but the jackals of the steppe are now gambling on our doorstep, trying to storm our cities, rob our wives and daughters, and slaughter our parents. Would you like it, brothers? ”

"Would you like to?"

After Duoduo finished speaking, the cavalry behind him shouted loudly: "I don't want to! Destroy those dog-bred Tatars! ”

The sound was like thunder, like a thunderbolt. Resounding throughout the world, shaking the heavens and the earth.

The cavalry is very fast, not to mention the elite Eight Banners Elite Cavalry. Coming and going like the wind, the wind is galloping. Twenty miles was nothing to them, and they soon approached the tall and majestic city of Beijing.

Changing perspectives, on the other side, Huo Yande and the 30,000 soldiers and horses behind him suddenly felt the earth shake and began to shake. It's like an earthquake. Then the roar grew louder and louder, like the thunder and lightning roaring, and the flood struck.

"Look, King—"

Looking in the direction the soldier pointed, I saw a black line appear in the distance, and it grew bigger and bigger. The neighing of the horses became clearer and clearer.

A Mongolian soldier pointed to the distance in horror and exclaimed, "It's the Eight Banners Elite Cavalry!" It's the Eight Banners Elite Ride! ”

The Eight Banners Elite Rider was getting closer and closer, and the sound of ten thousand horses galloping was deafening.

"Don't mess around! Don't mess around! We are the warriors of the great Golden Family, the eagles of the sky, and the descendants of the Sirius God! We are the most valiant warriors! Don't be afraid! ”

Although Huo Yande had just kept comforting his soldiers, the courage of the Golden Family had already been exhausted in hundreds of years. The bravery of the Sirius God is also slightly insufficient. In the face of the raging Tatar cavalry, the morale of these Tatars had plummeted.

Soon, the two were no more than three miles apart.

The murderous aura of the Tartars suddenly filled the heavens and the earth, making the hot summer heat become gloomy and cold, just like the Shura hell, eerie and terrifying.

"Kill !!"

With the angry shout of Na Duoduo, I saw that the 30,000 iron horsemen behind him were like a flood that had opened the floodgates, rushing directly towards Na Huo Yandegang, without a preface, without rest, and charging directly.

Many of the Tatar soldiers began to be frightened, and they fell backwards unconsciously.

"No retreat! No return! No return! If anyone dares to retreat again, there will be no mercy! ”

-------------

When Na Duoduo and Huo Yande had just rushed to kill, Liu Xia and Na Li Wen were also discussing their plans with each other.

Li Wen pointed to the giant deer on the map and said, "Lord Wang, this giant deer city is not tall and not very strong. Most of the soldiers and horses inside are soldiers of the Green Battalion composed of Han Chinese, and the elite of the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty have been transferred back to Beijing to help, this is a great opportunity for us! If you take this giant deer city, you will definitely be able to continue to go north without hindrance, from here to Beijing all the way flat, and then the endless plain, there is no danger to defend, nothing to prevent. It will definitely be able to block the Qing army in Beijing and dare not come out. ”

Liu Xia looked at the map and thought about it again: "Although the giant deer city is not high, it has a lot of troops, even if they are not elite, if they can't defend the city, we are helpless." ”

Li Wen shook his head and said, "No, no." I heard that there is a place called the arsenal under the prince. In recent years, the arsenal has produced a lot of powerful steel cannons, and they are easy to carry. ”

Although Liu Xia said that he didn't know how Li Wen heard about it, he didn't ask, but his heart was shocked, and he was shocked, except for insiders, the artillery became steel, and other people basically didn't know, although it was not too secretive, but other forces really didn't care about this little thing these days. I don't know that it is better to use steel than copper.

"This king has indeed gradually eliminated the bronze artillery, and slowly deployed new steel artillery. It's just that the steel mill doesn't produce enough steel today. So the production of this artillery is not large. ”

Li Wendao: "Hauge is not a person who shows weakness, and the reason why he does not dare to act rashly now must be because of the experience of Duoduo, so he has become extremely cautious. It is not difficult to lure them into the army. ”

"Haoge is actually still a person who doesn't have too many brains, just fake news, saying that the war in the south is tight, Wu Sangui's army is about to go south, and the southern Kuiwolf army is defeated, with heavy casualties. The general had to send troops back to help. Now there were more than 20,000 men in the city, and the general could order 15,000 men and horses out of the city, and then pretend to be a false pretense and place artillery on top of the tower to protect the city and convince it. ”

Liu Xia's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said: "The war in the south is tight, so we should set up Pingxiang and send troops back to help." If the cannons had been placed on top of the city, Hauge would have believed it, and by then—."
